Embedded Firmware-Based Locating Logic for Earbuds, Headphones Hearing Aids, and Their Cases
FindLogic™ created a Patent Pending, lightweight firmware module that adds short-range locating behavior directly into audio accessories.
No Apps, No Cloud Required.
FindLogic™ fills in the gaps of current locator systems.
Read on to discover more features and how it works.
What FindLogic™ Is:
A Modular Firmware Layer to signal the device in the user’s environment.
FindLogic™ handles all locating behavior offline, protecting user privacy and simplying the user experience.
How It Works:
Proximity Signaling:
FindLogic™ Locator signals the earbuds case to provide locating feedback with light, sound, and/vibration when the user initiates a locating action, even when the earbuds or case is dead.
Device to Case Locating:
The system is bidirectional, allowing the case and the earbuds to assist in locating each other without apps, accounts,
or cloud services using short-range logic.
OS-Level Shortcuts:
QR/NFC setup enables quick-access locating shortcuts
Optional Wake-Word Activation:
Local, offline voice triggers (no cloud processing).
Why It Matters & Fills in the Gaps:
Current cloud-based and app-based locators show where earbuds are on a map or show if you are getting closer to the lost device, yet fail to give user feedback for locating in the last known location.
Locating is tricky if you are told you are near and still cannot locate it.
FindLogic™ saves time locating by providing real-world locating cues in the environment where devices are actually lost.
Designed to integrate easily into existing audio accessory systems requiring only a few low cost, hardware additions
It complements exising cloud/app-based locators by adding:
Offline locating
Real-time signaling
Bidirectional triggers
Privacy-first operation
Accessible Friendly
Making it a natural enhancement to any audio ecosystem.
Who Is it For:
Designed for individuals who value privacy and convenience in their technology and who misplace components of their audio accessories.
Audio accessories are often misplaced under a blanket, inside a couch cushion or under the couch, or in a bag or drawer.
Losing the earbuds case is a big problem! If earbuds are low on battery, they cannot be charged without the case, therefore locating the case is essential. The case is small and can easily be misplaced or blend in with the environment.
